WHEELING. ". VA. AUGUST 10. 1887.
A Democratic cri,lol.m of Democrats.

II n DemUCfntlc CFlllGltm OIL beuiusEntss
Tho esteemed and able lPts. Virginia
Democrat Ia out Of patience With the Dem.
ocrata Of Virginia. It does not hcaisate to
say that with a stupidity without parallel
they have made public proclamation that
the coming campaign Is to be one Of by
pocrlsy and false pretenses. In one breath
they endorse President Cleveland, and in
the next breath adopt every plank in the
Republican platform" ok ss,a
The chief cause Of the West Virginia
Democrat, :displesaure Is tho adoption by
the Roanoke convention Of platform fa'
voring doing away with tho whole Inter
nal Revenue establishment, and the col
lection Of all national revenue from tariff
''limited to the necessities Of the Govern
ment economically administered, &C." A
declaration in favor OF tariff limited by
tho necessities Of the American people
would be more to our liking, but for Dem
ocrats tho brethren did remarkably well
The Democrat Ia OF the opinion that "tht
convention has placed the Democracy O.
Virginia in such predicament that VIZ
do not believe the State can DO saved iron
the Republicans unless tho candidates fo
the Legislature repudiste tho platform
That would certainly BIO remarkable OK
pcdient for saving the State.
Bot We must differ with the Democra
on this question, as on some others. Viz
ginia is iant drifting away from the Dem
ocrntic idol, and II anything can save her
Or postpone for great while the day O.
her deliveFance, 1t will be just such {
tariff declaration rs tho Roanoke conven
ton has made. The caae would have
been better II tho resolutions had beer
stronger, without the limitation which Il
intended to be variously interpreted il
various parts Of the State. ~
The people Of Virginia have forced the
hand Of the Democracy politicians. The
people know what protection has dono fol
Pennsylvania and other States Of like re-
sources-what it has done for the whole
country-and the tune has gone by when
they could be imposed upon by free trade
fNlacies. II must bo admitted that this
means that they have ceased to be Demo
Gratis.

NEVER have we been more inter
ested and shocked than in reading
the vivid description of the question-
able pastimes INDUCED in by some
ultra society ladies at fashionable
summer resorts. The scenes de-
scriptive of the drinking and gam
bling of these women are forcibly
depicted in the "Quaker Lady, a
summer hotel novelette,, in tDem-
orest's Monthly" magazine for Aug
ust and the contrast between their
amusements and the refined pleas
ures of the ssQuaker Lady is beau
tifully brought out. This maya
zine is always intensely interesting
as well as elegantly gotten up. Pub

RAIN. hail, thunder and light
ming, cyclones and fire and heat WIS.,
tied our sister city Baltimore and
vicinity yesterday and last night,
causiaR terrible obstruction to life
and property. Our sympathies go
out to our afflicted fellow citizens
as we render thanks for the benefits
and blessings and protection we en-
joy in a deliverance from all the
evils that have visited less favored
portions of our State and country.
In the afternoon an angry wind
cloud from the northwest passed
over our city, cooling the atmos-
phere but doing no damage. In
the night we were visited by heavy
winds and rains and terrific thun-
der, but neither life nor property
sustained serious damage. A few
old trees in our streets were blown
down, but no further injury resulted.
Annapolis is certainly favored
